Csilló

Csilló is a Hungarian noun meaning a spark, gleam, or flash of light. It is used primarily in literary or descriptive contexts to denote a brief glint on surfaces such as water, metal, or eyes. The word is related to other light-related forms in Hungarian, such as csillog (to glitter) and csillag (star). In contemporary everyday speech, csilló appears more often in poetic or stylistic expressions than in ordinary conversation.

Etymology and usage: Csilló derives from the same root family as csillog and csillan, connected to shining or glittering. The form appears in older Hungarian texts and survives in some dialectal or poetic usages. It functions as a concrete image in descriptions of light, rather than as a practical or technical term.

As a proper noun, csilló can also appear in Hungarian contexts as a surname or as part of place names in historical materials. Because such uses are tied to specific people or locations, they do not constitute a single, widely recognized topic on their own.
